Is Air Pollution Regulation Too Lenient? Evidence from US Offset Markets
The American Economic ReviewWe develop a framework to estimate the marginal cost of air pollution regulation and apply it to assess policy efficiency. We exploit a provision of the Clean Air Act that requires new plants to pay incumbent facilities to reduce emissions. This “offset”

Do Two Electricity Pricing Wrongs Make a Right? Cost Recovery, Externalities, and Efficiency
American Economic Journal: Economic Policy, 2018Economists favor pricing pollution in part so that consumers face the full social marginal cost (SMC) of goods and services. But even absent externalities, retail electricity prices typically exceed private marginal cost, due to a utility’s need to cover

The Equity and Efficiency Effects of Electricity Network Tariff Reform: Evidence From Ireland
Energy JournalWe estimate the welfare implications of reforming residential electricity network tariffs to incorporate cost-reflective “Coasian” principles. For an Irish case study, we find that current Distribution Use of System (DUoS) tariffs deviate considerably ...

Correlated Pollutants, Avoidance, and Local Environmental Policy
Energy JournalWe study the impact of local fuel standards targeting sulfur-related air pollution from maritime transport off the U.S. west coast on damages from greenhouse gases (GHGs) and other local air pollutants. By avoiding the regulated area, ocean-going vessels
